LET’s CHEER on KINECT is the perfect companion for cheerleaders nationwide, as they prepare for this season’s regional competitions,” said Steve Lux, vice president of business development for 2K Play. “The unique combination of controller-free movement and voice-enabled technology creates a game experience that rewards athleticism and spirit, and provides feedback that can help improve real-world cheer skills.”

LET’s CHEER movements include basic motions like the High V and Broken T, up to more advanced combination moves like the Blade Cap and Touchdown Sway. Players can individually test their flexibility with jumps like the Herkie and Double Hook, or team up in the cooperative two-player mode. In addition, gamers will chant out loud with KINECT for Xbox 360’s voice-enabled feature to have their spirit level judged like in a real competition. The camera functionality ensures best performers will be rewarded with an appearance on the in-game cover of American Cheerleader, the premier cheerleading magazine.

With the release of LET’s CHEER, cheerleaders across the nation will get the chance to try out the game as it goes on tour through partnerships with leaders in the cheer industry. The tour will include the highly attended All Star Challenge: Battle Under the Big Top with American Cheerleader and the GSSA Championships with Inside Cheerleading, and approximately 50 locations under the JAM Brands umbrella including JAMfest, GLCC, Live!, Coastal, COA, America’s Best Championships, GAME DAY and The U.S. Finals.
